Music Matters

Available for over a year

Suzy Klein remembers conductor Sir Colin Davis who died this week aged 85. She hears from those he knew and worked with him, and delves into the archive to hear Sir Colin's thoughts on music and life, in his own words. Young Iranian American harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani looks forwards and backwards when preparing a concert programme, and he takes Suzy to visit the harpsichord he uses to play the music of Ligeti in the Goble harpsichord factory in Oxford.
